What types of contributions are recognized for PD hours?
Contributions such as detailed lesson plans, innovative teaching strategies, thoughtful posts, and constructive feedback on others' ideas can all be recognized for PD hours. The emphasis is on meaningful and impactful contributions that benefit the community.

How do I know if my contribution qualifies for PD hours?
After you share a resource or engage in discussions, your contribution will be reviewed based on its relevance, quality, and potential impact. If it meets the criteria, you’ll be awarded PD hours through SBISD.

Can I see how other educators are using my resources?

How can I maximize the impact of my contributions?
Focus on sharing resources and ideas that are practical, innovative, and adaptable. Clear descriptions, supporting materials, and an explanation of how the resource has worked in your classroom will help others implement it successfully.
